DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The following descriptions are exemplary embodiments only, and are not intended to limit the scope, applicability or configuration of the invention in any way. Rather, the following detailed description provides a convenient illustration for implementing exemplary embodiments of the invention. Various changes to the described embodiments may be made in the function and arrangement of the elements described without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.

The foregoing and other aspects, features, and utilities of the present invention will be best understood from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

Referring to FIG. 1, a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, a fence pillar 3 with the chain storage which comprises: a pillar body 31; a bottom stand 32 fixedly set at one end of the pillar body 31; and a chain 33 which can be stored in the pillar body 31; wherein the inside of the pillar body 31 is hollow and two corresponding openings 311 of the pillar body 31 are set oppositely to one end surface of the bottom stand 32, which each opening 311 has an inlet-outlet hole 3111 and an engaging-fixing hole 3112 extended downwards from each inlet-outlet hole 3111 and the diameter 3112 d of the engaging-fixing hole 3112 is smaller than the diameter 3111 d of the inlet-outlet hole 3111; wherein the chain 33 is formed by connecting a plurality of buckle rings 331 and has a first end 332 and a second end 333.

In this embodiment, please simultaneously refer to FIG. 4, a stopper 34 for fixing the chain 33 at either end thereof is further set inside the pillar body 31.

In the following example for description, the stopper 34 is set in the pillar body 31 and bound to the first end 332 of the chain 33.

Referring to FIG. 2, when in use, the user firstly pulls out the chain 33 received in the pillar body 31 through the opening 311. That is, the user holds the second end 333 of the chain 33 in hand and pulls out the chain 33 towards the opposite direction of the opening 311. At this time, utilizing the structure that the diameter 3111 d of the inlet-outlet hole 3111 is greater than the diameter 3112 d of the engaging-fixing hole 3112 and the inlet-outlet hole 3111 is set above the engaging-fixing hole 3112, therefore the user can simply pulls the chain 33 highly towards the direction of the inlet-outlet hole 3111 to easily pull out the chain 33 through the inlet-outlet hole 3111. Referring to FIG. 3, the user only needs to place the buckle ring 331 of the chain 33 in the direction of the engaging-fixing hole 3112 after the length of the chain 33 pulled out is sufficient. The buckle ring 331 will be engagedly fixed in the engaging-fixing hole 3112 in a latched state owing to affection of the gravity. At this time, the user only needs to take the second end 333 of the chain 33 into the opening 311 of the other pillar body 31 and engagedly fix its buckle ring 331 into the engaging-fixing hole 3112 to accomplish the assembly work of the fence pillar 3 with the chain storage.

Continuously, since the first end 332 of the chain 33 is tied to the stopper 34 and the diameter of the stopper 34 is greater than the diameter 3111 d of the inlet-outlet hole 3111, the user will not completely pull the first end 332 of the chain 33 out of the pillar body 31. And, the first end 332 of the chain 33 can be fastened inside the opening 311 through the stopper 34, so that the chain 33 will not be completely pulled out to fall.
